Blandine Martin

Born Aix en Provence - FRANCE
Based in London since 1988

As an artist I use organic and instinctive processes within my practice, often led by the materials used. I like to experiment and play with natural materials including recycled fabric and paired with discarded objects to create sculpture and installation. I reinvent their function as sculptural objects of desire combined with a domestic resonance. I am fascinated with memories and the traces we leave behind through objects and love to create tension with a language of aesthetic opposite and conflict, juxtaposing them in a space.
